Rob Sanders

A primer for peaceful protest, resistance, and activism from the author of Rodzilla and Pride: The Story of Harvey Milk and the Rainbow Flag. Protesting. Standing up for what’s right. Uniting around the common good—kids have questions about all of these things they see and hear about each day.

Jared Schorr’s bold, bright illustrations brings the resistance to life making it clear that one person can make a difference. And together, we can accomplish anything.

Peaceful Fights for Equal Rights

Caroline Lewicki

This was a tough one to read after having just read "Sometimes People March." I think the stories are the same but "Sometimes People March" just goes into a little bit more depth about WHY people fight for equal rights, or whatever they believe in. This book was a great partner to that one (obviously by different authors), but I thought this book just stated over and over what you could do and not why you should.

Also, my library puts this in the Juvenile Political Science non-fiction section but I feel it probably could fit better in the picture books, like "Sometimes People March" and many other books about civil rights.
